Modern House Part 8- Sunshine, decking, walls, posts, Etc.

- Опубликовано: 14 фев 2024
- Continuing on with the final main floor joists and decking we start framing walls at the bedroom end of this level. Setting posts and shear walls in the kitchen and living area allows us to install some much needed guardrails on the backside of the project. The better weather was welcome and although it was broken up by a day or two of rain it was a nice reminder that spring isn't that far off now. Thanks for stopping to check out the video and to all the subscribers new and old.

I love watching you work. Your knowledge & skill set is impressive. And attention you give to the quality in your builds are second to none. I have learned quite a bit just watching. Thank you for sharing your experience.
My pleasure and thanks for tuning in. There's always a hundred different ways to do things and i'm just adding my own I guess :-)
I’m glad you got to work in the sun for a change!
Me too! It was fun while it lasted:-)
Hey, finally a video without rain again. Ok, with a little bit rain. 😂😂 I've already caught a cold just from watching.
It's fun to see how a really great house is slowly but surely taking shape. Please continue with such great videos. Thank you very much.

You got it, i'll be back next week with another one. Thanks for watching:-)
Love to remote control crane. Being able to move with the material with no strain on yourself or needing hand to signal and trust someone else is grand. You are a true craftsman with how you keep area clean and free of sawdust and debris. Living and building in the PNW keeping floors clean saves a bunch on delaminating plywood. As soon as structure dried in a big fan can move the moisture out of structure very nicely. Always look forward to your videos.
It has been such a game changer for me. For some things it seems overkill but on others it can literally turn hours into minutes. Thanks for tuning back in:-)
as impressive as the house design and challenging the site is, your skills exceed it! I have never seen such a high spec structure as this built by 1 person and of course the ultimate power tool being a remote crane! I would say that you make it look easy but I know that is due to how well you have have captured and edited the process. Thanks for keeping the videos long.
My pleasure, thanks for tuning in:-)
felt like a 20 minute video. Time flies when you're enjoying :)
Thanks Paul!
that 2x jack is crazy, ive never seen that before
Wall jacks! usually they work in pairs and it's incredible the things they can lift when properly applied.
I need a house built by Jake. These videos are the ultimate resume.
Haha, awesome! I'm never going to get my own projects done now :-)
That Hi-Lift jack come frame lifter, never ever seen one of those, effing brilliant, a couple of those and a bloke could stand any wall up on his own and stop for a cup of tea half way through. You have quite the bag of tricks don't you.
Indeed! those wall jacks have lifted some amazing things over the years. They work great on beams as well when you set them up right. Lots to go wrong if you're not careful with them of course but an invaluable tool to have on a framing job.
Another great installment Jake. Looking forward to learning how those Strong Walls fit into the structure moving forward (finally a piece of kit you didn't fabricate from scratch ;-). Appreciate all the details such as the blocking nailers between the joist webbing, you jacking up the one wall instead of using the crane, and your overall workflow, tons to learn from. Today's question: have you had any inspections yet given the complexity of some of your connections (or at least I think they're complex)? Thanks.
Those strong walls are handy but a little tricky to use because they don't really leave much tool room to tighten them properly. These ones are unique because I have access to the bolt head below the steel to tighten them vs just a bolt sticking out of a foundation. All the welding is inspected before I set any steel and I keep up with the bolting inspections as each level is installed. The next inspection will be a shear wall and nailing inspection when i'm done with framing.
Love the work ethic Jake, definitely ''work smarter not harder'' and good to see the weather gave you a bit of a break. You must be well proud of your finished projects! keep them coming.
Thanks for that Michael, Although i'm more than accustomed to the rain and cold a few days respite sort of felt like a vacation. Lot's of projects in the works and I seem to have just automatically added in some sort of filming strategy into project planning without giving it much thought. So yeah, there will be more stuff coming:-)
Hey Jake
What can I say?
You’re doing an outstanding job, and it seems that you got a little better weather in this video. I’m glad to see that you are taking in the subscribers.
Keep up the great work, she’s going to look amazing.
Sending you nothing but positive energy.
Take care, and see you next week.
Joe
Thanks Joe! I appreciate the good vibes:-)
I never met someone like you!! You are incredible, fantastic!!
Love it so much keep it up as always 💘
Amazing really amazing!!!
Really enjoy the videos. Thanks for sharing!
always enjoy your process and progress ✌️
Awesome Job!!
Great to see the sun is out for you Jake
another great week of work !
Always impressed by how clean you keep your worksite
Thanks for noticing!
You do work hard for a living
I'm Damn glad the crew showed up today!! Me, Myself and I.....I mean Jake..LOL OH and Irene on the crane...LOL Great job Man! I keep asking myself, whatever happened to standard construction...then I look at the materials required to frame this home! I was glad when I saw those Simpson Strong walls you put Ole Irene to work! PS I really like your editing and videography! That skill really makes the story smooth!!
Thanks so much for all of that, Yeah those strong walls are no joke heavy and hard to handle, the crane sort of turns it into a non-event:-)
Crane is definitely worth the time setting it up. That was a cool wall jack. Are those shear walls for seismic or wind load because of so many windows? I noticed you added those brackets to the end of the LVL beam and the metal straps to the walls, so I'm leaning towards seismic load.
Kind of both. Seismic and wind are both types of lateral loads but i guess wind would be way more likely to be acting on it in the daily sense. Overall every house needs a certain amount of sideways support and the strong walls can replace a long section of that in a short area. There will be a good example in the next week or two of a wall that provides a similar amount of shear that is site built but 4 times as long to equal it.
👍👍👍
Slick trick at 1:02:30. Love seeing plywood, rather than osb.
Hey thanks, Kind of bummed i didn't get it on the first try:-)
that was sweet, made me grin.
What’s this??! Working in the dry! No snow or rain? That’s unheard of! 😁
It honestly caught me a little off guard :-)
💯✅✅✅
A dry day at last
Fantastic progress, Jake. Your work rate and quality detail are really superlative. am also grateful for the sketch-schematics you shared in Episode 7, though not to a great detail for proprietary reasons you earlier explained. Please keep these updates coming, and well done for a great job done thus far. Btw, how long from start to finish to you project it will take on this Project? Asante sana.
Hey thanks for checking back in. I estimated 16 weeks for the steel and framing and I feel like i'm holding tight to that. There is two sections of roof that will be dried in before that though.
Wait! Wait! I saw the sun. Lol.
IKR? to be honest it was a little hard on the eyes:-)
👍🇦🇺
Hey Jake, whatever happened to that tiny home/office/storage container project? As if this job wasn't big enough, haha.
It's still sitting in the corner of my yard waiting for a porch. Been doing this job and weekends elsewhere so no time for it right now. It will come back around soon enough:-)
Style and layout..good structural ddsign..good..
Materials -- maybe..?
Rot....hmmm
🎉seria muy interesante saber la ubicación y el motivo de que no yengas al menos un ayudante.
Gracias por sintonizarnos. Estoy en el noroeste del Pacífico, cerca de Portland. He trabajado solo durante bastante tiempo y ya estoy acostumbrado. Es muy silencioso:-)
When the forks place something on the ground,
What is the correct term for the blocks of scrap-wood used to lay the lumber on ?
I have heard, "runners", "sticks," " stickers," etc.
Stickers is probably the most common around here but most people also grok the term 'dunnage' so it gets used a lot. The term 'stickers' also applies to the lath or thin strips that are put in a stack of boards every 6-7 layers to keep it stable and transportable but a lot of times just saying 'Hey'! and pointing at the load is enough to make another carpenter kick a board under it for you:-)
What is the estimated construction cost and what is the SQFT of the house?
Not the GC so I have no info on the cost but it's probably around 4000sqft on the three levels without the garage or the bonus covered carport.
Best guess on the breakdown per level is ll-800, ml-2400, ul- 1000.
Can you explain the two walls you added? What are they used for in this house?
Sure, I'm assuming you mean the strong walls which are the LSL-Steel hybrid walls. They are a combination shearwall/holdown that are used when a higher shear value is needed for a given area than can be provided thru typical construction. In this case the back wall is mostly window without much wall area to provide racking strength. So the positive connection of these to the steel frame work together with some other features in the floor/roof above to provide that. As I mentioned in the video one of them continues up to the next level with a special kit, That will show up in a couple episodes I think.
Thanks for watching.
@@ShredPile Good stuff - appreciate you taking the time to respond…excited to see the continued work and the finished product!
just curious, are you building your own house or is it for your client?
No, not for me. I'm the framing and steel contractor. My client is the GC and by extension the architecture firm.
Oh no rain again
sometimes it just comes out of nowhere:-)
Bamboo beams , planks etc boards..Hmmmm
Please show rock wall even if you dont do it!!?
Totally will do that. Still haven't heard back on final plans yet but it will happen at some point.
Hehe gravity sucks
Why are you working alone??
I asked the same question in video 6 >>> he said Just been working that way for quite some time now. Admittedly it does appear somewhat awkward on the larger jobs but it's really not that big of a deal.
Mostly it's quieter and simpler that way. I have guys that can help if I need them to and have projects planned for this year with help. Thanks for stopping to check the video out!
Well, you do amazing work...
You do know that you have work for life now, right?
Haha, I was commenting earlier how much easier it was to keep your schedule full when you work alone:-)
잘보고 있읍니다 그런데 비가와서 합판이 젖어서 썩을수도 있겠네요
물론 최적은 아니지만 우리 지역에서는 일반적입니다. 오랜 건설 과정에서 말라버릴 것입니다. 지붕이 바람에 건조되면 다른 내부 조치가 신속하게 작용하여 건조시킵니다. 시청 해주셔서 감사합니다!
@@ShredPile 나도 같은 걸 궁금해하고 있었어
